Ah, Buck Hall Recreation Area, we will sorely miss you! What an awesome place this was. We were able to stay there 8 days before we
had to leave to get some repairs done to our rig and begin our westward
journey.
Buck Hall is a very small campground with about 20 widely
spaced RV camping spaces and a few lovely tent sites. One
side of the campground is the Intracoastal Waterway and the rest is forest. The trailhead of the Palmetto Trail begins
here and we walked some of it through the thick pine forest.
The Intracoastal Waterway is alive most days with fisherman
enjoying the wonderful waters. Buck Hall
has a loading ramp and also a very nice fishing pier.
The cost was just $20 a day for RV Camping and since we are
old, we got the Golden Pass discount and only paid $10. It is the bargain of the century. Our camp host suspects that all the
government parks will increase their fees in order to continue to maintain
them.
All of the sights have water and electric, a picnic table
and a fire ring. We enjoyed quite a few
campfires even though it was very cold and windy while we were there. There are public bathrooms with a primitive shower
and also a pumpout station. Every one of
the sights are good, not a bad one to be had.
We moved after 6 days as we decided to extend for 2 days and the space
we were in was already reserved for the weekend. I loved both spaces. One backed up to the forest and the other had
a fantastic view of the water.
If you are ever in the Charleston area of South Carolina,
you should stay a few days. You won’t
regret it! (Unless the humidity and the
bugs are out in force!)
